BUFFALO- After working through a particularly rough winter, the construction crews at HARBORCENTER were treated to a well deserved special lunch.

Enjoying the late summer waterfront, crews snacked on some free Ted's Hot Dogs and got together for a group photo taken from above.

"Today we said; we've got to really treat these guys, the effort that they've put out through this winter has been just phenomenal, and I think that there's a lot of pride," Cliff Benson, Sabres CDO said.

"These fellas aren't just showing up to get a paycheck. They're proud to be part of Buffalo and what they're doing here."

The picture the construction workers took certainly reflected that pride, getting together in the shape of a Buffalo.

"I think it's a great opportunity to show our spirit," said one worker.
